Many insurance companies will give you a discount just for having a security and home automation system installed. However, they often require a certificate proving the installation has taken place. To obtain this certificate, simply download the certificate from your online account center. Once you log in, go to the 'Resources' tab and click on 'Insurance Certificate' in the top right corner. You can download the certificate there and email it to your insurance agent or print the certificate.
